The main results of Tuesdays elections
were disa ppointing TO the Republican and
Labor parties. New York went Demo
cratic by from 10000 10 $4,000 plurality,
the Prohbitionists made sensible gains,
and the Labor vote gave signs, as in Chi
caoo and elsewhere, of having previously
seen It's best day.
Nothing OF special interest was offered
in the other States. The Democrats car
ried Democratic States and the Republic

A STRANGE CONFLICT OF EVIDENCE.
Positive Testimony for and Against Saloon
Keeper Burns in His Trial for Perjury.

The law breaking saloon-keepers of the city
are greatly interested in the trial of James
Burns, charged with per.juring himself while
on trial for selling on Sunday, and the Criminal
Court room was well filed with them yesterday
There were but few witnesses in the case, and
the taking of their testimony was concluded
soon after noon. In some respects the testi-
mony was the most remarkable that was ever
heard in the court house. Four witnesses for
the State testified positively that Burns did sell
beer on Sunday, the 10th of July, charged.
They were policeman Pope and Hostetter who
made the arrest and Wesley Albeit and Arm
stead Matty, two colored men who bought the
beer and drank it at Burnss bar on the mornin g
of the day charged
Burns went on the stand in his own behalf,
and reiterated his testimony before Squire
Smock that he sold no beer that day, and
hadnonein his saloon. His last key was emptied
Saturday night, about 10 o'clock, he said, and
he received no more until Monday morning.
He also testified that he did not see Albeit or
Matty in his saloon that day. A colored
scrub his saloon, testified that she was in his
place on Sunday morning at o'clock. and in
trying to get glass of beer for herself, found
all the kegs empty. Two men living in the
neigh borhood, also testified that they called for
beer that day, and were told by Burns that he
had none.
The entire afternoon was occupied In arguing
the case, and the jury will be charged this
morning. The officers say that if Burns is not
convicted in this case they will prefer charges
of perjury in two more cases.
